Index of/ error, but only sometimes?

  • Hi,

    I posted this originally in the fixing WP part of the forum before I found the issue to be IgniteUp. Posting here in case there’s something else, or its a coincidence!

    I should add, I haven’t had any of these errors before the plugin was enabled (I tested!) and after has been fine too. I have re-enabled it since.

    Hello,

    This site was deleted and we’re trying to restart it. We’ve upgraded to PHP7.3, have the latest WordPress, a theme installed (Consulting, if that’s important), and a maintenance mode plugin added.

    https://grrowlinglypurrfect.co.uk/

    I went to test the plugin, and it’s showing an index of/ error sometimes. There are no files listed alongside the error. Sometimes it shows the correct information/style etc. Sometimes it shows what’s behind the maintenance plugin.

    It happens on different browsers, in private mode/incognito so it’s not a local cache.

    I’ve only got one page which is designated the home page, which is static, but I’ve also tried just displaying the latest posts and its the same.

    I’ve also tried to install an SSL today, could that be the issue?

    It does seem to just affect the home page. If you try to go to https://grrowlinglypurrfect.co.uk/blue (not a page) it shows the maintenance mode plugin.

    I’ve looked at the settings of the plugin (IgniteUp) and they’re the same as I’ve used on other sites, so don’t think there’s a problem there.

    Google results seem to say there’s no index.php file, but surely if it works sometimes there must be?

    I don’t want to build a site if there’s a fundamental issue somewhere that means I have to start again!

    After disabling it
    Update 2 (after engaging my brain, sorry!).

    Have disabled the plugin and now all fine (if messy). If that only happens when the plugin is enabled am I alright to use it anyway? Maybe 7 times of 10 it works?

    Its not a high traffic site, so I suppose it doesn’t really matter, but I like to keep things tidy!
